GitHub Offers Free Micro Plan For Students For Two Years
Related Posts
As you already probably know, GitHub is amazingly awesome and keeps beating crap out of others (cough, Codeplex, cough). As a company, they have a very unique organization and that amazes me as well. And I am also going to tell this: GitHub is not #1 because of the fact that they support Git. They are #1 because they know what we want and how important UX is for the overall quality.
Anyway, couple of days ago I came across that GitHub offers Educational Accounts for academic people (student, teacher, etc.) and that covers free micro plan for students for 2 years.
As I am (still!) a collage student, I filled up the form and sent it. I was expecting to be rejected since I thought they wouldn't accept students outside of the USA for this plan but they were very positive about it and set my account in a short time.
If you are student, go to https://github.com/edu, fill up the form indicating that you are a student, want to benefit from the free edu plan and get the micro plan as free of charge for two years.
